RCA 390 - Manual (Page 2)

Warranty Registration
No other RCA Video Cassette Recorder has the same serial number as yours. It is important that you
record the number and other vital information here, in case your VCR is stolen or in case you need a
complete description for any other reason. You will find the model and serial numbers on the back of the
VCR. You will also find both numbers recorded on your registration form.
Purchase Date
Dealer_______
Model: Serial Number
VCR registration is very important so that you can be contacted should there be a safety inspection,
modification, or product recall under applicable laws or regulations or otherwise. The dealer who sold
you the VCR should have registered it and given you a copy of the registration form.
If your dealer did not give you a copy of the registration, contact him promptly and ask for it. You must
be able to show your registration or evidence of purchase date to any RCA Authorized VCR Servicenter
or the RCA Service Company to receive warranty parts and service. We suggest you attach your sales
slip and warranty registration to this booklet and keep them in a safe place for future reference.
This owner’s manual can be used for both VMT390A and VMT390.
Safety Precautions
Your VCR operates on 120 volts, 60 Hz (normal household current) and has a polarized
plug. Because one blade of the plug is wider than the other, the plug fits in the wall
socket only one way. Do not defeat the safety feature of this plug. If you need an exten­
sion, use a polarized cord.
Caution: To prevent electric shock do not use the polarized plug on this Video Cassette
Recorder with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the blades can be
fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.
Mise en garde: Pour prévenir les chocs électriques, ne pas utiliser la fiche polarisée de
cet appareil avec une rallonge, une prise de courant ou une autre sortie, à moins que
les lames ne puissent être insérées à fond sans qu'aucune partie ne soit laissée à
découvert.
WARNING: To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this VCR to ram or moisture
-Illustrated below is the label on the back of your Video Cassette Recorder.
